gm, if you are alive in the next 30 years, chances are you're going to live forever it is stupid to risk this immortality by doing things that can kill you beforehand

Have thought about this kinda stuff for years. What level of immortality do you think we need to really “live forever”? I think we’re close to biological immortality aka reverse aging, but we’re still prone to diseases & environment, and our brains are still primed for shorter lifespans. How do we progress?

either biological or artificial technically, we can avoid a lot of issues by having artificial organs too!

I’d say biological is prob the right path in the short-term (the next several generations). Even if we somehow had the tech, I’m sure most people prob couldn’t handle being placed in a synthetic body. Even though we’ll face major humanity issues like resource scarcity, I’m very bullish on longevity.

> I’m sure most people prob couldn’t handle being placed in a synthetic body. when it comes to a choice between dying or artificial body dying people would almost always chose not dying it's easy to speculate when we're not dying ask people who are dying right now if they'd want to live more

People who are currently dying will be much more inclined to take whatever options they have, but I’m obviously talking about mass adoption. Tbf we’re all dying right now, so while irrational, human psychology suggests we don’t like change, even when it’s for the better (eg being healthy)
